Crestline Comics is the best! It's always awesome to go in an have a chat with the owner about the new comics or things around town. Even though the shop appears small, they have a wide variety of different comics, toys, hobby items, and card games. My son has really enjoyed going to the official Pokemon league and meeting new friends his age who share his love for the game. It's been great to be able to find packs in the shop for him to open and continue building his deck! read more

Best place on the mountain for all your TCG and Comic needs! Fair pricing and a great place to hang out

Since my first interaction with the shop owner Chris I have always been impressed by Crestline Comics. Chris is always willing to make deals on items and is super knowledgeable about comics, pokemon, and other TCG. It's always awesome to chat with him about the latest items and to see the vast selection of various hobby items in the shops. Compared to many places, Crestline comics pricing is quite reasonable (and Chris is willing to negotiate!). It's been wonderful to have a hobby shop in my small town and after becoming a shop regular, i am so grateful to Crestline comics for allowing us to help with hosting the weekly Pokemon league. The league has allowed my family and I to find an awesome sense of community in a place where we can learn more about Pokemon and build our skills among other Pokemon fans for free/low cost. Thank you Chris & crestline comics the local Pokemon community greatly appreciates you! read more

Don't let the small store front fool you, this place has a lot of great stuff! Lots of new weekly comics, plus plenty of back issues. Everything seems to be priced fairly. Lots of cool wall books, and statues to look at. The owner is really nice and helpful. I go to A Shop Called Quest for most of my books because it is closer. but will certainly be stopping in here regularly too. Definitely worth the drive up the mountain, make a day of it and grab some pizza at Roadhouse right across the street. read more

Crestline Comics is an absolute gem! The owner Chris is very friendly and knowledgeable, he always takes the time to help me out with any questions I have about comics or Pokémon. In shop, there's a wide variety of comics, and many TCG products amongst other items. I especially appreciate their TCG section, they have Lorcana, Magic, and my favorite, Pokémon!!! The pricing at the shop is very reasonable with a very impressive selection. It's truly a one stop shop for fans of any kind. What really sets Crestline Comics apart for me, is the community they've built. They host weekly D&D nights, weekly Magic nights, and a weekly Pokémon night, giving people of all ages a place to play, connect, and have fun. It's more than just a store--it's a welcoming hub for gamers and comic fans alike. read more

Can't wait to go visit again! read more

Im a local up here. This place is epic! I usually have to go down the mountain only to find nothing. My wife was even surprised i actually bought something. This place just opened up and i found the coolest stuff for prices we need up here. Walked out with one piece, spawn, and the crow. Tom and Chris were the nicest dudes and helped me with all my absurd wants. They just kept pulling out banger after banger and versions of things i didnt know existed like spider punk. The cover was so awesome i had to throw it on the stack. The shop is much bigger than i thought too with a huge selection to choose from. I had to slow myself down because i wasnt prepared to finally find stuff. Im happy and HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone local or out of town. read more

Excellent service. I was low on cash and needed some gas money to make it to my Dr. appointment. He was 100% as honest as can be. He bought some items from me, and I was able to have gas money and some for kitty food and dog food. I really appreciate it. read more

A much needed staple for the Mountain Communities! Tom, Chris, and Julia are great, and the selection is already off to a fantastic start. Looking forward to many years of patronage. read more

What a great addition to our community! My 2 boys loved the selection. The shop is at up so well and it's a ton of fun to visit.

I love it!!! The owners are so nice! They have an amazing selection of comics, graphic novels and even super cool statues. I'm a huge nerd and I'm soooooo glad that there's a fantastic comic book shop now right here in town. Everything is very well priced too! I bought some toys (a really cool Iron Giant toy!), comics and graphic novels and everything is very fairly priced! I'll be sure to come in every chance I get! My only negative which isn't even really much of a negative, is that I usually always work until 6PM and I wish that they were open from 12 to 7 instead of 11 to 6, that way I could stop by after work. Nonetheless, please make sure to support this shop! I'll be bringing friends and family here for sure!! read more

I went to the opening day of Crestline Comics and had a blast. While their selection of comics is small, they make up for it for having something for every fandom. Statues, manga, dungeons and dragons, TCG's, whatever you're looking for it'll have some representation. They also plan on growing and including more of what their customers want as they had attendees fill out customer cards. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They're off to a great start and I'm excited to see them grow. read more

We had an amazing time at the opening of this much needed comic book store. There's definitely something for everyone and if you don't find what you're looking for the friendly owner will help you out. Definitely check out this place! Great for kids and kids at heart! read more

First off, let me just say that as a now 45 year old comic nerd, I have been going to comic book stores since I was a young boy. Used to literally walk to one on the regular where I lived in Apple Valley and as I've grown and traveled I have continued to visit comic stores all over the country so believe me when I say how excited I am to have one 2 minutes away and I'd like to think I know what a good comic store should feel and look like. Crestline Comics has that special look and feel, and even though it may be small to start, they have ample variety and are clean and organized, and staff is friendly. I was very impressed with the selection of raw books. I found bronze, copper, and modern age books by the BIG 2, including indies in great condition and well taken care of. Many stores don't sell raw or slabbed books and most definitely don't offer statues, so Crestline Comics is a nerd haven for collectors! That's not even counting all the other toys and cards, graphic novels, and art. Lastly, I'll just say I'm kind of puzzled by some of the negativity this store has gotten so soon. It's brand new! Kinks and adjustments are inevitable. So give Crestline Comics a chance, I certainly know I will! I personally am looking forward to more future comic fun! read more

Came and see not much of a selection when it comes to comics, they had horrible parking. Place was hard to find. Prices were expensive & I felt uncomfortable as one of the guys was staring at me. read more

They reached out to the community asking for donations, after being a a start up business and also claiming they buy comics. Which is a red flag. I went to their opening on May 4th and they had hardly any FCBD books, I should have just gone down the hill to the better LCS to get the books I wanted, because they didn't have really anything. When I brought the comics up to see if they would buy them. They offered pennies to the dollar on books that were signed and worth a lot more. Which I was let asking for much. I was asking way less than eBay comp. I just wanted to get rid of them. The place is expensive, paid $25 on a $12 book that I didn't realize until I got home and looked it up on eBay. Bad customer service. They looking to get free hand me outs and pretend they are "helping out the community." Don't bring your comics in to sell there because you will get scammed. You are best to sell them on eBay or hand them down to family or pawn them. Probably get more at a pawn shop. ***Put it this way. I would rather take the extra 15 min drive down the hill to the other 3 comic stores that have way bigger selections and better service, than this one, OR buy my books online.*** ***The swap-meet has cheaper trading cards also.*** read more

Happy to have a local comic book shop. Some people say you can find better deals on eBay and leave one star reviews which is sad. The physical comic book shop experience is one I don't want to be replaced by eBay to save a couple bucks. read more

I'm so glad to see a local comic shop in the Crestline area. I found a bunch of old Flash issues that had been missing from my collection and also managed to pick up some other gems that I didn't even know I wanted. Also, Magic the Gathering and Pokemon card packs for me and the kids? Excellent. I will definitely be stopping again the next time I am up the hill. Can't wait to see this shop grow. read more

Great comics in stock and a very friendly staff! The store is well organized and even has a KIDS CORNER!!! Definitely coming back!

The place is well stocked, friendly staff, and lots to look at. Don't miss the opportunity to go in and find something for you, the kids, or any one with a taste for the universe of comics. Something fun to do while in town for sure. ​ read more

This is such a cute little shop. They have a great selection of comics and figurines. We bought a couple of comic books and we can't wait to ho back. read more
